Samsung S-series smartphones are powered by different chips depending on where you buy them: models sold in North America, Taiwan, and China are underpinned by Qualcomm Snapdragon chips, and variants sold elsewhere feature in-house Exynos chips.
This is a huge improvement over two years ago when criticism of the Exynos 2200 forced Samsung to not release any Exynos-powered S series model at all in 2023. Up until a few years ago, MediaTek chips were only found in low-cost phones and were criticised for their laggy performance and weak graphics.
A flagship phone is a status symbol. Like it or not, we live in a world where people value things that not everyone can have. That's why, a MediaTek Dimensity 9400-powered phone may not be as well-regarded as a handset fueled by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4.models with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, the price is guaranteed to go up and this could alienate buyers. The company's latest foldables are exclusively powered by Snapdragon chips and are more expensive than their predecessors.
